Interpack 2026: One Group. One Responsibility

Laupheim, April 8, 2026. At interpack 2026 in Düsseldorf, Uhlmann Pac-Systeme, KOCH Pac-Systeme, Cremer, and, for the first time, Goldfuss Automation will be presenting themselves under the umbrella of the Uhlmann Group. The Group companies will showcase smart, safe, and efficient solutions for complex packaging tasks: from machines and software to services and expertise in materials and regulatory requirements. In Hall 15, Booth B24, visitors can experience Uhlmann Group solutions live and digitally.

Beyond Packaging – Customers Need More Than Just Machines

The demands on modern packaging processes are rising rapidly. New materials, growing pressure for sustainability, digitalization, and shorter innovation cycles present packaging customers with a level of complexity that cannot be managed with isolated, standalone solutions. Changing regulatory requirements, volatile markets, and the pressure to continuously improve Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) call for reliable partners who think beyond the scope of their own machines. This is where the Uhlmann Group comes in.

“As a group, we combine technologies, expertise, and experience to provide expert consulting and pioneering, modular solutions, thereby actively driving change in the packaging ecosystem. Thanks to the high flexibility of our portfolio, we develop tailor-made, future-proof solutions for our customers’ challenges. In doing so, we ensure the global availability of sensitive products and take responsibility for their protection and safety,” explains Prof. Dr. Matthias Niemeyer, CEO of the Uhlmann Group.

Sustainable, future-proof solutions for demanding products and automated lines

With innovative solutions encompassing machines, software, and services, the Uhlmann Group covers the entire packaging value chain across numerous industries—from the pharmaceutical, healthcare, consumer goods, and food sectors to the agricultural market.

At interpack, Uhlmann Pac-Systeme will present comprehensive solutions that enable pharmaceutical manufacturers to measurably and sustainably improve the effectiveness of their equipment (OEE). Visitors will experience Uhlmann Pac-Systeme’s solutions in a digital presentation, including 3D visualizations and interactive applications. On the “Holowall,” they will gain detailed insights into complex packaging lines and their functions and process steps. The focus is on the PTC 200, a modular solution for packaging parenteral products in carton mono-packages, as well as the BEC 500. It combines a blister machine and a cartoner in a single unit. Both lines are characterized by their high flexibility regarding packaging materials.

KOCH Pac-Systeme will showcase for the first time the new folding carton module for the KMO at interpack 2026. The KMO’s modular machine concept combines maximum flexibility and cost-effectiveness. Thanks to its modular design with standardized interfaces, the machine adapts quickly to new market requirements. With the new folding carton module, KOCH Pac-Systeme addresses the growing importance of this packaging form in the market. Folding cartons offer high recyclability, material efficiency, and reliable product protection, thereby meeting the regulatory requirements of the PPWR. The new KMO module is characterized by the horizontal cartoning process with side product insertion. It enables a process-reliable and fully automated processing.

The counting and weighing specialist Cremer from the Netherlands addresses the specific challenges of four industries with its machines: In the pharmaceutical industry, precision and strict compliance with legal regulations are top priorities. The food industry, on the other hand, requires hygienic solutions with high throughput. In the non-food sector, flexible packaging solutions are in demand for a wide variety of products, while the seed industry relies on particularly precise counting and filling of delicate small seeds. In addition to four machine solutions, Cremer is also introducing its new integrated B2B e-commerce webshop, MyCremer.

Goldfuss Automation is showcasing a fully automated folding carton feeder with an integrated cobot at interpack. The Goldfuss system retrieves pre-packaged folding carton blanks directly from the pallet, opens the shipping cartons, and automatically feeds the blanks into the magazine of a cartoning machine. Depending on customer requirements, the solution can handle the entire material flow, from pallet provision and magazine loading to the disposal of empty cartons and interlayers. The integrated robotics thus enables largely autonomous packaging processes for sustainable packaging materials.

The joint appearance at interpack demonstrates how customers from various industries specifically benefit from the Group’s integrated offering. They receive not only a packaging solution but also a partner who supports them in the long term with expertise in sustainable and future-proof packaging.
